@WestonABonczek I run a lot and go through shoes quickly. I ran Brooks Ghost for a while - nice shoes. My favorite atm is the UA Flow Velociti Wind 2. Lightweight & holds up well on long runs. I do work at UA but feel confident I'd say this regardless of my employer. underarmour.com/en-us/p/runnin…

@ECPjohnmartin Any information on what was inside this and surrounding buildings?

The warehouse fire on East Franklin continues to send a huge plume into the sky. #Evansville

@EWSUtility @EvansvilleINGov Are there any drinking water restrictions for this area?

Traffic Alert: The both SB lanes on Vann Ave will be closed just south of the Lloyd Expwy due to a water main break. Traffic will not be able to turn south from the Expwy on Vann until the leak is repaired. Please drive slowly near the work zone. @EvansvilleINGov #EWSU

@jordanjoecooper Absolutely agree. I feel like just hearing myself explain the issue out loud helps tremendously.

I love talking through solutions/problems with colleagues. Sometimes you just need to talk through your thinking / get another perspective on the problem!

@laurieontech @5t3ph @maxcell Thanks for this. Very excited about adding Indent Rainbow. 🙌

@5t3ph @maxcell Ident rainbow, colorized brackets and peacock. All visually tools that have improved my productivity and decreased my errors.

I feel like I'm not getting the most out of VSCode. My current actually-in-use plugins: - GitLens - Prettier - stylelint - Atom Keymap - Auto Close/Complete/Rename pack - And my theme (Apollo Midnight) What am I missing as a front-end dev?

@aweary I often use Sweet Home 3D for this. It's free and somewhat easy to get going. sweethome3d.com @SweetHome3D

@KyliRachelle MyFitnessPal is nice. You can scan labels, create your own meals, and pull from what others have added. Syncs well with activity trackers too.

What’s the best app for tracking how much you eat & what you eat? The one that allows you to like scan shit & shit.

@collinmesser @shanselman Thanks Collin!!

@shanselman @AlexMourer something you may be interested in! I’ll probably check it out sometime soon

Interested in being a better technical presenter speaker? Here's a great 90 min Pluralsight course that IS ABSOLUTELY FREE! speakinghacks.com Please share. Again, totally free!

@JoelAErickson Will Campbell be back this year?

Pittman tonight: 4 catches, 49 yards. 1 carry, 21 yards. He's coming on.

@Nick_Craver I was interviewed by a guy named Chad once and he told me “to remember my name, think of the hanging chad from the 2000 election”. 😐

You know what word I haven’t heard on the news the last few days at all? “chad” You’re welcome.

@MacLtoons who specifically is on lockdown?

@nkellyatJG How do these numbers compare to 2016?

Final voting numbers before Hoosier cast ballots on Election Day. *fax/email is for military/overseas and an address confidentiality program.

@jmscottimd @collinmesser Just switched to a Yongnuo YN-300 II with a softbox. I bought the light years ago and has been pretty nice. We used it as primary lighting for photos on ourwanderingkitchen.com.

@AlexMourer @collinmesser what light are you using alex?

I am now one of the people with a way too fancy video call setup

@collinmesser @ASpittel The difference is Ali actually knows what she’s doing. Her content is far better than mine.

@ASpittel @AlexMourer this is what I imagine your set up to be 😂

@kapehe_ok I roofed houses. 🏠🔨

What was your job right before your first tech job? I'll start: 🛫 Flight Attendant 🛬

@mattmitchell ohhh that is cool.

@AlexMourer Microsoft just released an update to their iOS and Android apps to where you can remotely connect to your Xbox (from anywhere). You just have to set it up once initially. Works way better than I was expecting.

This is the most amazing thing I’ve ever done, remote play works a lot better than I thought it would.

@CompuIves Congrats! I didn't realize how new it was when I started using it a few years ago. Always seemed well polished and highly functional.

When CodeSandbox was released I was so happy with 1500 created sandboxes in 2 weeks, I don't think we could have ever imagined reaching the 10 million 3 years later! A huge thanks to everyone using CodeSandbox! Without you we wouldn't ever have reached this milestone! 😄

@ThePracticalDev Help to succeed: Making sure the acceptance criteria is clearly written out and all dependencies have been taken care of. #devdiscuss

Time for #DevDiscuss! Tonight's topic is... Working towards deadlines - How do you put yourself in the mindset to meet a deadline? - How do you communicate when you realize a deadline to be not achievable? - How can orgs set up developers to succeed in the face of deadlines?
